# Grid A Box with extra props to make it easier to use the CSS grid API. ## Import ```tsx import { Grid } from '@coinbase/cds-web/layout/Grid' ``` ## Examples Grid is essentially a specialized [Box](/components/layout/Box) that lets you use the [CSS grid](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Grid_Layout) API. Even if you're not familiar with CSS grid, Grid includes a few "smart" properties that handle all the grid magic 🪄 under the hood (see [Equal Columns](#equal-columns) and [Implicit Columns](#implicit-columns) examples). Grid can create three kinds of layouts: 1. **Equal columns** 1-12, with support for responsive columns 2. **Custom columns** If you're familiar with `grid-template-columns`, this is your swiss army knife prop. See [CSS Grid Track Sizes](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-grid-1/#track-sizes) for the specs. 3. **Implicit columns** The Grid will automatically layout as many children as can fit in the given space, and recalculate as the screen size changes. Children of a Grid can be anything, but if you want a child to span multiple columns you'll need to use the GridColumn component. Refer to the [GridColumn](/components/layout/GridColumn) documentation for usage. ### Equal Columns You can pass an integer between 1 and 12 to `columns` to create equal width columns. ```jsx live function Example() { return ( {Array.from({ length: 6 }).map((_, idx) => ( {idx + 1} ))} ); } ``` ### Custom Columns You can pass a string to the `templateColumn` prop with anything you would normally set as the value for the `grid-template-columns` CSS property (see [spec](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/grid-template-columns)). You can use this kind of layout to create ratio-based layouts, too, where each column will vary in size based on a proportion of available space. You can specify this with the `fr` unit, ie: if you want to have 1 column that is 2/3 of the available space and another that is 1/3 you would pass `2fr 1fr` to `columns`. ```jsx live function Example() { function Item({ children, ...props }) { return ( {children} ); } return ( 100px 20% min-content 1fr ); } ``` #### Responsive Custom Columns The `templateColumn` prop does not take object values, but you can still leverage the [useBreakpoints](/hooks/useBreakpoints) hook to conditionally render different configurations for `templateColumns`. ### Implicit Columns If you do not pass anything to the `columns` or `templateColumns` props, Grid will automatically lay out children based on available space. When children can no longer fit within a row, it will create additional rows to fit the content. You will have to provide a `columnMin` value, which will determine the minimum track sizing for the columns. You can optionally pass `columnMax` as well. When using implicit columns, Grid will not support `responsiveConfig`. Rather, columns will automatically wrap to the next line, whichs makes them great when you don't know the size of your content but want to make sure your layout is responsive! :::tip Implicit columns will create columns of equal size. If your content will vary in size you should use [HStack](/components/layout/HStack) instead and pass `flexWrap="wrap"`. ::: ```jsx live function Example() { function Item({ children, ...props }) { return ( {children} ); } return ( {Array.from({ length: 12 }).map((_, idx) => ( {idx + 1} ))} ); } ``` ## Props | Prop | Type | Required | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `alignContent` | `ResponsiveProp
